Do you happen to have the Renoir and/or Tribute to compare them to? I only ask because the Nyoni watercolour pencils look a lot like the Renoir ones and I know these companies all like to use the same handful of factories. I'd have substantially less envy being in the UK if I didn't need them in the first place.
@@mydogeatspuke I have Nyoni, Deli, Marco Renoir, Brutfuner 120/180. All different! And if there's another set you really don't need, there's a new budget Brutfuner round set of 520 on Aliexpress...
@@andrewmandywilsontatham49 100% completely different, or only slightly different if you haven't picked one up for a week and are basing it on memory? I've seen a lot of people with terrible judgement for these things lol
@@mydogeatspuke My Marcos are a thin pencil that slips when its cold so I haven't used them for a while (winter in NZ). They are similar to my Lyra's. The Deli feel drier than any of the others and are supposed to be almost the same as Polychromos but I don't have any, the Nyoni are like silk or butter and I think I like them better than the Deli. The Brut squares feel more like the Lyra and drier than the Nyoni. Luxurious? If that applies. The round Bruts feel waxy and smooth, but you just know you're not going to get the layers that you will with the others. And picked all of them up within the last week. Hope that helps. PS our dogs eat puke too.
@@andrewmandywilsontatham49 I was following you until you said the square Bruts felt luxurious lol. They're the same cores as the rounds and they're absolute trash, relatively speaking. I have no idea why so many people are rating them so highly. My Renoir are lovely and soft, not thin at all, slightly thicker if anything with sturdy and meaty cores, and the satin wooden barrel makes them really easy to hold. I've been told by some people that the Lyra Rembrandt are VERY different compared to the Renoir, so to see you say they're similar just makes this an even bigger cosmic joke. I've also been told by some that the Nyoni are the same as other brands that I know are the same (or "so very similar that it would be impossible to tell them apart but we can't say for certain because some people get very unstable when you make statements of fact" I suppose) as Renoir. My round Brutfuner don't feel waxy at all. They're definitely oily, as is plastered all over the box some 12 times. They don't layer particularly well though, no. Lots of weird scratchy issues too, but that's pretty common in 120+ for $20 pencils. I think I'll just stop hoping for anything special from the bargain bucket and stick to the painfully expensive but guaranteed to be quality stuff instead. Dogs are disgusting little menaces, but it's very normal for them to think gobbling down their own vomit is the tastiest treat in the world. Also cat poop. So gross, but hilarious all the same.
Oh my gosh Pamela-I just got these yesterday but haven’t had time to check them out. Thanks for doing this video right away! You have such good judgement on new items. You are a breath of fresh air!
As usual really liked your enthusiastic review of these pencils. Because two years have passed and competition among budget pencils is always fierce, I am going to find a more recent review to see what, if anything, has changed about these pencils since the time this review was done. Congratulations on the book. I will check it out!
Can you do a side by side of Markart vs Brutfurner..and maybe throw in SW Srar Joy?? Lol.. I have 2 of them not Markart yet. And may I say YOU ARE AMAZING!! I've done some color alongs when I can.. my Kidney disease controls my time.. Love and hugs 🙏🙏🙏🤟❣ you are such a JOY..💐
Can you please check them against the Brutfruner Squares, colors and numbers. I have the Brut Squares 72 and the MarkArt 48, and they are the same in number and color, the only difference is shape of barrel and the Brutfuner 72 has no N in the number . Now I'm not sure if the Brutfuner 120 has all the same colors as the MarkArt 120, but I would really like know if there is difference in the larger sets. That info would really help people to know so they don't go and keep buying the same set of pencils over and over.
The colors of the pencils come from minerals from the ground, plants and chemicals. They are all different so the texture or hardness of the leads will be different from each pencil. You will find that in the expensive sets or the cheaper ones.
The 120 Markart Pencils continue to come without the names on the pencils, just on the lid & some of the names are as lovely as the pencils. But these Markart Pencils are a REALLY good deal as the Nyoni 120 are $60.00+ dollars on AliExpress & are both made at the same Coarmcolor Factory.
I believe these are the same as Nyoni pencils. And are oil based. And if they are, they are great pencils to use. I use these with polychromos on work I really want to be my best adult colouring.
They must be from the same factory as arteza. I compared them on the same paper, they feel the same, smell the same, the wood looks the same, the pencil looks identical when you look at the top when hold them next to each other. The colors are different but this is because the companies who let the pencils produce from the factory can choose which of thousands pantone-colors they want in their pencil set.
The 72 set wasn't available before it only became available when the 120 set was introduced. These are the Nyoni pencils I have them and compared them to the 48 set of Markart and they are exactly the same. I think it was horrible of Amazon to bump up the price $10 after people started buying the pencils by word of mouth. I'll wait til they go back down or for the 21st-22nd to see if I can get them on sale since they will be a backup set. I love my Nyoni pencils I've had them for about 2 years.
This was a great video. Congratulations on your tutorial. It will really help, and hopefully inspire, more people to create great color combinations in their art.
I love my MarkArt pencils! I have had them for some time now and they are one of my favorites. Not sure when I'll be able to get the larger set but it is on my list.
These look like that have more pastels than Arteza. I have not tried these or Nyoni. The leads look nice and thick too. I look forward to your swatch and review as I have heard good things about their smaller sets (I need more budget pencils like a hole in the head tho 😄)
Repeat with me; I do not need more pencils. I do not need more pencils. 😂 I’m pretty sure these aren’t the same as Arteza. They go down on the paper very different that Arteza do. They feel as though they’re oil-based and Arteza are definitely wax-based.
After watching yours and the frugalcrafter lindsay. I'm getting there thanku so much.ilove oil base pencils. I have polychromos. I absolutely love them
I have only swatched with these pencils so far. But they feel like an oil based pencil. Compared the feeling of these pencils to the Arteza 48 Premium pencils, which are wax based.
Are these truly oil based? Would you say these are a budget friendly "polychromos"? How do they compare with Brut squares, Raam Refined, ArtnFly, or H&B? Thanks
Layering well isn't a new thing in budget pencils, I have quite a few budget sets that layer and blend well like the crayola, Marco raffine, WH Smith pencils, Arteza, castle art etc, and that's only the ones I can think of just now. I only buy pencils now that I know I'm going to use. I don't need 120 or 180 set of budget pencils that will inevitably gather dust. They do look quite crumbly to me but that's just my opinion. It also depends on the paper you use as well to do these tests. Do them on normal paper and see how they come out because a lot of colouring books do use normal copy paper. I'm assuming you bought these yourself, the company didn't send them to you? Btw most pencils have a mixture of both oil and wax, the art gear guides speaks a lot about this that's why he never talks about a pencil being oil or was based. How can you possibly use all those pencils. I mean I have polychromos, polychromos Albrecht durer, prismas, arteza, Castle Art, inktense, Derwent lightfast, procolour, Holbien and some cheaper brands and I struggle to use them and I hate it, that's why I only buy pencils I know I'm going to use.
You'll have an easier time doing Light pressure if you hold the pencil further back on the barrel. Give it a try. Do the lightest pressure you can holding it near the tip, then try holding it at the back of the barrel and see the difference.
Also wax and oil have nothing to do with the hardness of the lead. People think oil is hard because of polychromos. It's not. There are hard and soft versions of both primarily wax and primarily oil pencils. Wax and oil affect how the pigments lay down. Oil based will be a lot more translucent than wax based. However almost all pencils are such a mix this is only really significant for professional grade materials.
I have an extensive colored pencil set, prisama color 150 set. Castel art 120 set, dick Blick 72 set. Two sets of positive art 120 set, and other colored pencils to. All which are excellent colored pencil sets. But I want to get the star joy 120 set, and the Markart 120. You sure did find some high quality budget pencils.
For those who have the nyoni 120 set and this 120 set, are the shades the same? If there is much cross over I will not be bothered, but if they are different? Would be of value to have both sets
Hi Pamela, these look great, not available in the UK on Amazon UK, but, I’m coming to Florida next year, I’m going shopping for lots of pencils. Next month I’m going to visit the Derwent museum and their large store, it’s only about a 5 hour drive, but I’m going with family so we are making a weekend of it, I do have a few sets already of Derwent, I’m trying to save for the new lightfast pencils…. But the Derwent set I really want are the chromoflow, they only sell them in the states and India, crazy Derwent ! It might be that I’ll have to get that set when I get to the states next year….. sorry if you’ve been asked before, but I’d love to see how you put your sets of pencils in your cases in family order, I still can’t prep colour pallets, I just can’t seem to grasp it ! XxxxxX
Just ordered the 120 set £61.68 in UK lovely video as always, going to watch your pencil collection next, looking forward to that, can we see you put them in colour order, so I can copy please xxx
Wow these have gone down in price down to only $29.99!! That's pretty cheap considering the price of brands like Shuttle Arts or Arteza. I think I might have to pick up some Markarts.
I was looking at these too but seen they only had smaller sets. I didn’t know they came out with a 120 set so guess I’ll have to take the plunge now. LOL.
I think it was really 💩 of them to raise the price $10 in the span of about 4 hours. I’ll keep my eye out for a coupon or something. No way I’m paying $40 for a budget set that probably cost $20 or less to make. Not even the Brutfuners cost that much for 120.
I know this is an old video, but I just noticed something very interesting. When I look at swatch sheets of the 120 square Brutfuner's, the colors are what seem to be exactly the same as the Markart, even down to the numbers (Markart just has N0 at the beginning of each numbered pencil). Now, I only own the Markart set, not the square Brutfuner's. I'd love to hear your feedback on this and compare them (not asking to make a video), I'm just genuinely SO curious about this. I've been tempted to buy the square Brutfuner's, but if they lay down and feel exactly like the Markart's, then I won't. I LOVE the unique color selection, but the Markart's feel too dry to me and I can hardly get more than 2-3 layers down. Hope to hear back from you! Much love as always 💞💞😊
I just examined my Markart swatch sheet further with pictures of the Square Brutfuner's swatches, and there are some slight differences such as the Markart's have a lot of darker Magenta/Red-Violet-y colors, and it looks like Brutfuner took some out and replaced with more light pinks. What really caught my eye in the first place is 057 in both sets. It's a very unique light mint color I haven't found in any other sets I have. Also 056, 045, 044, 030, 055, 106, 017, 038 in both sets are the same colors (just to name a few, there's a lot more, but also some differences as well). 057 was my first lil nubbie in Markart because I used it SO much lol. So hence my temptations to buy the 120 Brut's so I can have that color again 😅
I don't believe they are the same. The Markart are the same as the Nyoni colored pencils. As with all budget brands, you're going to find some colors that are very similar. This holds true for artist-grade sets too.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils Thank you for your reply! 💞 In your experience, do the Brut's 120 square set lay down smoother? It's so weird with my Markart set. Most colors have that sort of dry feeling when they lay down and when I attemp blending and layering, then there'll be a couple gems in the rough that feel super smooth! I've read and heard other people mention it too. The Brutfuner's keep tempting me still 😅
Pamala have you swatched these pencils yet? Have you noticed that there are several with the same names but different numbers & colors listed on the lid? I would sure like to see how you have set them up in color families.
I really want these.. yet, I just bought the Brutfurner 120, I recieved 2 days ago the square.. and the SJ Star Joy.. would it be worth my buying these too?? I'm not a professional...and can't afford so many.. I Appreciate your Review.. It does HELP..HUGS To y'all.. Sweetest of dreams!!
I've been comparing my StarJoy with these. They are def different. Yes, these act like they have more wax to oil ratio (dryer if you will) not scratchy though. Pigment comes off easy. These are a larger core diam. I was also pleased that the colors do not match up with Star Joy either. I would have been bummed if they matched up exactly. I think I'm fine buying budget pencils for a while (lol). Saw they went up to $40. Got mine for $30 just in time I guess!
I received my 120 set of Markart and when swatching them I have 4 duplicates.Have you had a problem? Bought from Amazon. Also, on the inside cover of the tin where they put the swatches the names of the colors are under the numbers.
I had 4 duplicate pencils ( pencils of same # and color which meant I’m missing 4 colors.). Then I had 2 pencils same color different #’s. Color names on tin had 2 lavenders 2 olive greens but different colors and #’s. I think whoever put my set together had too much to drink😩. I would like to say they were wonderfully packaged, and I am happy with the correct ones I received.
I want to purchase 2 sets of budget colored pencils. One softer and one harder. I'm sure I want this but what other set would be a good compliment to it?
I'd rather have the names on the pencil, but then again, that's why I swatch. If I'm not mistaken, Markart is oil based, so I don't think they'll blend well. Markart is not the same as Arteza, they are better.
Yes these are oil-based. I did mention this in the video. The Arteza are wax-based and wonderful pencils. These do layer very well though and have great pigment. I do also love having names. It just gives the pencils so much more meaning to me.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils with Arteza, you can't seal your work, it breaks down with plain water, when you use a sealant, your work just melts into one big brown stain
I just got mine today! Unfortunately, the package and tin were damaged and I received 1 pencil with absolutely no branding at all. No stripe, no wording, no number, no color name. Now I have to return them and wait for a replacement.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils I did receive a replacement set, which was set out pretty quickly. Although I love these pencils, I noticed that there are 5 or 6 pairs of pencils that have duplicate names on the tin. 😕
Pamela did you ever put up the swatch and review video of these pencils? I can't find it if you did. When you put them in color order did you use the list on the tin lid or your own? I have tried using the lid but it's not exactly right. I dont use facebook so I cant check your group. Maybe I can find the color order somewhere.....
This video should be coming out this weekend. I did not use the lid. Those colors were so out of order! I rearranged them all by undertone. You can find that very soon.
Love Your Pencils Reviews💖 Although these aren't on my list Great watching it😊 Pamela, I hope you can answer these questions for me 1) Caran d'Ache Pablo are on my list you mentioned in one of your videos after coloring with them your finger hurt would you say they are worth the pain?🤭💝 2) I want to buy the Springhill paper the link sent me to the paper is it consider cardstock, if so do they work well in a copy machine, or is best to go to a printer shop? Thanks! Love your videos for beginners like myself🎨
They're not the same pencils. I just put all the Star-Joy in color family order and that video will be coming. I will be doing these Markarts next. Then I will be doing some pencil comparisons for some of these sets.
Wondering if anyone can recommend some decent medium priced 40/50 dollar price point colored pencils ✏️. I draw and Im just getting started out doing cartoons. Can anyone recommend some decent pencils?
@@PamelasPassionforPencils oh I was doing a TH-cam search..but you took them out and I was like gosh they look like Arteza pencils... thanks again for all of your videos your beginner series are really helpful
I wouldn’t ever guarantee that any budget friendly set is going to be lightfast. This is one of the few sets that are budget friendly that don’t claim to be lightfast on their description on Amazon. There aren’t any lightfast rating symbols on the actual pencils and no information claiming to be lightfast on the tin they come in either. Hope this helps.
I am not sure. Are you in the United States? If so, you can try the link in the description box of my video. I linked all the varieties of sets for these pencils there.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils girl, i am such a dork. Didnt realize that all sizes of these Markart sets could be found under the same listing, until I clicked your link.🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ So sorry about that! Thank you!!!🧡
I have these pencils. I can confirm that some of the pigments move a little bit with water, but they are not a watercolor pencil by any means. "Painting" refers to the fact the medium can cover the surface you are using them on. 😇
120 MarkArt exactly same as 120 Nyoni (which owns MarkArt). You don't need these if you have Nyoni.
Do you happen to have the Renoir and/or Tribute to compare them to? I only ask because the Nyoni watercolour pencils look a lot like the Renoir ones and I know these companies all like to use the same handful of factories.

The names of the pencils are inside the lid of the tin!
But there are some mistakes, like names of pencils listed twice but for different colored pencils - confusing.
12:04 There is Color Names too - just check the Top Part of the Box. There is the Number and corresponding Name listed
Thank you. Yes. I have all the color names. I actually had doubles of colors in my set too! I have been working on getting it fixed by Amazon.
I have only swatched with these pencils so far. But they feel like an oil based pencil. Compared the feeling of these pencils to the Arteza 48 Premium pencils, which are wax based.
Great review but they are the same as Nyoni pencils only more expensive….. very naughty if the suppliers to be ripping us artist off like this. 🥰
If they say PAINTING is because they are watercolor also
Those colored pencils are so beautiful!!
Omg ....first thing i notice is that the company made a mistake in spelling....when you said artist quality...BUT box say ASTIST QUALITY....LOL oopsie
Been waiting and hoping for these! Yay
They are really beautiful pencils, they will go on my Wish list, thank you for sharing this video 🥰💜

I was looking at these too but seen they only had smaller sets. I didn’t know they came out with a 120 set so guess I’ll have to take the plunge now. LOL.
It’s a newer set. If just came out last week. Gotta have ALL THE COLORS! 😂
Pencils look great. I didn't hear if the color were on each on the pencils
Congratulations 🎉 and these pencils are beautiful.tyfs
That red you are layering must have 15 layers on it!!!!
Mine will be here on Thursday!! :)
How exciting!
I think it was really 💩 of them to raise the price $10 in the span of about 4 hours. I’ll keep my eye out for a coupon or something. No way I’m paying $40 for a budget set that probably cost $20 or less to make. Not even the Brutfuners cost that much for 120.
Hello I am new to your channel and I am simply envelope with your coloring and I think you and I will continue to watch
Welcome to my channel!
Great now I want these uggg
Don’t we always want them all thought??? 😀
@@PamelasPassionforPencils unfortunately 😔
They are oil based colored pencils.😊
Yes they are.
I know this is an old video, but I just noticed something very interesting. When I look at swatch sheets of the 120 square Brutfuner's, the colors are what seem to be exactly the same as the Markart, even down to the numbers (Markart just has N0 at the beginning of each numbered pencil). Now, I only own the Markart set, not the square Brutfuner's. I'd love to hear your feedback on this and compare them (not asking to make a video), I'm just genuinely SO curious about this. I've been tempted to buy the square Brutfuner's, but if they lay down and feel exactly like the Markart's, then I won't. I LOVE the unique color selection, but the Markart's feel too dry to me and I can hardly get more than 2-3 layers down. Hope to hear back from you! Much love as always 💞💞😊
I just examined my Markart swatch sheet further with pictures of the Square Brutfuner's swatches, and there are some slight differences such as the Markart's have a lot of darker Magenta/Red-Violet-y colors, and it looks like Brutfuner took some out and replaced with more light pinks. What really caught my eye in the first place is 057 in both sets. It's a very unique light mint color I haven't found in any other sets I have. Also 056, 045, 044, 030, 055, 106, 017, 038 in both sets are the same colors (just to name a few, there's a lot more, but also some differences as well). 057 was my first lil nubbie in Markart because I used it SO much lol. So hence my temptations to buy the 120 Brut's so I can have that color again 😅
I don't believe they are the same. The Markart are the same as the Nyoni colored pencils. As with all budget brands, you're going to find some colors that are very similar. This holds true for artist-grade sets too.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils Thank you for your reply! 💞 In your experience, do the Brut's 120 square set lay down smoother? It's so weird with my Markart set. Most colors have that sort of dry feeling when they lay down and when I attemp blending and layering, then there'll be a couple gems in the rough that feel super smooth! I've read and heard other people mention it too. The Brutfuner's keep tempting me still 😅
Nyoni 😊💜🌿
Pamala have you swatched these pencils yet? Have you noticed that there are several with the same names but different numbers & colors listed on the lid? I would sure like to see how you have set them up in color families.
I haven't swatched these yet.
I really want these.. yet, I just bought the Brutfurner 120, I recieved 2 days ago the square.. and the SJ Star Joy.. would it be worth my buying these too?? I'm not a professional...and can't afford so many.. I Appreciate your Review.. It does HELP..HUGS To y'all.. Sweetest of dreams!!
I've been comparing my StarJoy with these. They are def different. Yes, these act like they have more wax to oil ratio (dryer if you will) not scratchy though. Pigment comes off easy. These are a larger core diam. I was also pleased that the colors do not match up with Star Joy either. I would have been bummed if they matched up exactly. I think I'm fine buying budget pencils for a while (lol). Saw they went up to $40. Got mine for $30 just in time I guess!
They look beautiful
I just received my package today I'm disappointed with the no color names on the pencils if I would of known that I would of never brought it
I received my 120 set of Markart and when swatching them I have 4 duplicates.Have you had a problem? Bought from Amazon. Also, on the inside cover of the tin where they put the swatches the names of the colors are under the numbers.
I found multiple pencils with the same names. Different colors, but duplicate names. Check the lid of the tin.
@@ccj7982 me too!
I had 4 duplicate pencils ( pencils of same # and color which meant I’m missing 4 colors.). Then I had 2 pencils same color different #’s. Color names on tin had 2 lavenders 2 olive greens but different colors and #’s. I think whoever put my set together had too much to drink😩. I would like to say they were wonderfully packaged, and I am happy with the correct ones I received.
@@carose1029 LOL! Wow...yeah I found 6 pairs with the same name but different colors. No missing colors though. Still, it can be confusing.
@@grannieannie40 Yeah, crazy....QC needs to do a better job.
I want to purchase 2 sets of budget colored pencils. One softer and one harder. I'm sure I want this but what other set would be a good compliment to it?
This is a fantastic set: amzn.to/3UGjZUA
I have 260 pencil colors I love them all
What were the #s on the ted/pink combo 😍 such a pretty combination.
I'd rather have the names on the pencil, but then again, that's why I swatch.
If I'm not mistaken, Markart is oil based, so I don't think they'll blend well. Markart is not the same as Arteza, they are better.
Yes these are oil-based. I did mention this in the video. The Arteza are wax-based and wonderful pencils. These do layer very well though and have great pigment. I do also love having names. It just gives the pencils so much more meaning to me.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils with Arteza, you can't seal your work, it breaks down with plain water, when you use a sealant, your work just melts into one big brown stain
They look like the mitsubishi uni. The exterior it's too similar
They look like my star joy and marco tribute color pencils
Just wondering if these can be used on fabric.
I just got mine today! Unfortunately, the package and tin were damaged and I received 1 pencil with absolutely no branding at all. No stripe, no wording, no number, no color name. Now I have to return them and wait for a replacement.
I’m so sorry that happened to you. I hope you get a replacement set soon.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils I did receive a replacement set, which was set out pretty quickly. Although I love these pencils, I noticed that there are 5 or 6 pairs of pencils that have duplicate names on the tin. 😕
Do you have an ordered co.or chart for these pencils? Thanks.
is the formula of these still the same now in January 2023?
I just bought them and I don't want to get a different formula
I don’t see why the formula would have been changed. As far as I know, there’s still the same. I haven’t heard otherwise.
Pamela did you ever put up the swatch and review video of these pencils? I can't find it if you did. When you put them in color order did you use the list on the tin lid or your own? I have tried using the lid but it's not exactly right. I dont use facebook so I cant check your group. Maybe I can find the color order somewhere.....
This video should be coming out this weekend. I did not use the lid. Those colors were so out of order! I rearranged them all by undertone. You can find that very soon.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils oh Yay! Thank you! Thank you! 🙏🏼
@@PamelasPassionforPencils this is great news as I just ordered the markarts today!
Love Your Pencils Reviews💖 Although these aren't on my list Great watching it😊 Pamela, I hope you can answer these questions for me 1) Caran d'Ache Pablo are on my list you mentioned in one of your videos after coloring with them your finger hurt would you say they are worth the pain?🤭💝 2) I want to buy the Springhill paper the link sent me to the paper is it consider cardstock, if so do they work well in a copy machine, or is best to go to a printer shop? Thanks! Love your videos for beginners like myself🎨
The Springhill paper does go through a printer, mine is an HP printer.
I wonder if anybody has done a lightfast test with these...
I believe they are wax based. It is hidden in the description and listed pigment and wax.
Which Do you like the best markart or castle art?
There really is no comparison as the castle arts are wax-based.
Are the star joys and this pencils the same I don’t want to buy them if they’re the same pencils
They're not the same pencils. I just put all the Star-Joy in color family order and that video will be coming. I will be doing these Markarts next. Then I will be doing some pencil comparisons for some of these sets.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils thank you I’ll have to buy them then I have the 48 pack and I love them how smooth they go down
Wondering if anyone can recommend some decent medium priced 40/50 dollar price point colored pencils ✏️. I draw and Im just getting started out doing cartoons. Can anyone recommend some decent pencils?
How funny. Before you said that they look like arteza pencils I was searching for a Markart and Arteza comparison
I haven’t done a video comparing the two.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils oh I was doing a TH-cam search..but you took them out and I was like gosh they look like Arteza pencils... thanks again for all of your videos your beginner series are really helpful
Is the core softer or harder than Star-Joy 120’s core?
I think they may be a bit softer than the Star Joy
اه كم احب هذه الالوان ❤
So similar to arteza
I thought that too, but the colors aren’t the same. Arteza are also wax-based and these are oil-based pencils.
I love my Markart more than Polys. the laydown is easier
I love my Markarts too! Happy Coloring! 💕
Does anyone know about the lightfastness of these pencils?
I wouldn’t ever guarantee that any budget friendly set is going to be lightfast. This is one of the few sets that are budget friendly that don’t claim to be lightfast on their description on Amazon. There aren’t any lightfast rating symbols on the actual pencils and no information claiming to be lightfast on the tin they come in either. Hope this helps.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils Thank you 😊
Whyyy cant i find these on Amazon.... or ANYWHERE???
I am not sure. Are you in the United States? If so, you can try the link in the description box of my video. I linked all the varieties of sets for these pencils there.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils girl, i am such a dork. Didnt realize that all sizes of these Markart sets could be found under the same listing, until I clicked your link.🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ So sorry about that! Thank you!!!🧡
If they say PAINTING its because they are also watercolors
I have these pencils. I can confirm that some of the pigments move a little bit with water, but they are not a watercolor pencil by any means. "Painting" refers to the fact the medium can cover the surface you are using them on. 😇
